## Abstract

These temporary regulations amend the existing regulations regarding fees for copies of exempt organizations' material the IRS must make available to the public under section 6104 of the Internal Revenue Code (Code), to provide that copying fees shall be no more than under the fee schedule promulgated pursuant to the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) by the Commissioner of Internal Revenue (Commissioner) (the "IRS" FOIA fee schedule"). The existing regulations authorize the IRS to charge fees for such copies, but do not stipulate the amount of the fees. These temporary regulations also make a conforming amendment to the existing regulation concerning the fees that an exempt organization may charge for furnishing copies of such material when required to do so, to provide that these fees shall be no more than the per-page copying fee--without regard to any otherwise applicable fee exclusion for the first 100 pages--under the IRS' FOIA fee schedule. The text of these temporary regulations also serves as the text of the proposed regulations set forth in the notice of proposed rulemaking on this subject in the Proposed Rules section of this issue of the Federal Register.
